Ah the gloom in 5000% humidity. It is always adds an extra suck factor in the gloom and it did not disappoint this morning! 5 brave pax posted with great anticipation to see what brand of stupid YHC had in store. YHC hopes the pax all got their moneys worth, especially Man Bun, who posted …
YHC saw something floating around in the webosphere that seemed like a terrible idea. Brute Force was doing a little fundraiser for the boys in blue and it seemed only correct to bring a full blown sandbag workout to Cryptonite. The Pax, as always, responded to the call. Sandbag weight was at the pax discretion. …
Ah it was yet another glorious morning at Cryptonite. It was hot. It is still hot. It is not going to stop being hot until January. Weather: 75 and humid Disclaimer/Prayer The thang: do 100 burpees, run a mile. Do 50 burpees, run a mile. Do 25 burpees, run a mile. Do 25 burpees. The …

YHC was a last minute addition to the Q sheet for this weekend so with little time to think outside the box, YHC fell back on an old standby for this AO. CONDITIONS: Cool 45 degrees Disclaimer/No FNGs THE THANG: in lieu of a regular warmup YHC decided to take the pax on the Cryptonite 1 …

Though after some discussion prior with Cryptonite’s other AOQs it was decided we’d stretch it out a little further …
